VIDEO: GOP Tries to Put Masks on the No-Fly List

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) is hoping to permanently ground the federal aviation mask mandate with a lawsuit filed Wednesday. “The argument is pretty simple,” he said. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) “didn’t have the authority to issue these mask mandates for transportation hubs and commercial airlines…. There was no statutory […]

The Evidence Is Clear: When Parents Are Engaged, Politicians Respond

In a review of all the political news in 2021, it would be hard to deny the impact of parents engaging the system. Politicians are responding to the undeniable force of concerned parents advocating for and protecting children. With state legislatures in full swing, we see many examples of legislation that reflect this much-needed pressure […]

Tech Mate: How Silicon Valley’s China Pals Compromise America

He calls it “the scariest investigation I’ve ever conducted.” And anyone reading through the bombshell revelations of Peter Schweizer’s new book are bound to agree. Most Americans knew the Chinese Communist Party was quietly trying to infiltrate our colleges, financial institutions, tech companies — even our military. What they didn’t know is who’s helping them: Big Tech. […]

Misdiagnosing COVID: Where Biden and the Media Got It Wrong

The U.S. Supreme Court dropped the hammer on the president’s vaccine mandate almost two weeks ago, but the administration must have had a hard time saying goodbye. It took 12 full days, but OSHA, the government’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration, finally got around to shutting down the private employer “jabs for jobs” rule it […]

VIDEO: Involved Parents Are America’s Most Wanted

Round One in Virginia goes to Team Parents. On day one, Governor Glenn Youngkin (R) announced a hotline for parents to report divisive material in the schools. In no time, that hotline began to expose woke ideology. “There were reports of a school in Fairfax County teaching a high school level course that included a […]

VIDEO: Russia’s Gas Grip Has the World over a Barrel

If the White House didn’t orchestrate Justice Stephen Breyer’s retirement, then they certainly won’t be unhappy about its timing. A vacancy on the Supreme Court is exactly what the PR spin doctors ordered for Joe Biden, who’s had trouble changing the news cycle from the president’s latest debacle-waiting-to-happen: Ukraine. And while it might turn a […]

VIDEO: Fatigue Identified as Major Side Effect of COVID Over-regulation

Thousands of Americans gathered yesterday in Washington, D.C. to protest the federal government’s increasingly unreasonable COVID mandates. One year into President Joe Biden’s term, he has done the opposite of his promise to “shut down the virus, not the country.” Fatigue is a common symptom of COVID-19, but it’s a universal symptom of the ridiculous mask and vaccine mandates […]

VIDEO: A Year in the Strife of Joe Biden

To Joe Biden, it’s been a year. To the rest of the country, it’s felt like an eternity. The one-year anniversary of this president’s inauguration hasn’t exactly been cause for nationwide celebration, as a good number of his voters will tell you. Twelve months into his catastrophic term, only 28 percent of the country would reelect him […]

VIDEO: Biden’s Military Retreats into Wokeism

With all of the disruptions to daily life right now, it’s hard to see past America’s own crises. But there’s a lot of volatility outside our borders these days — and very little faith that our president has the strength to confront it. If the United States is hoping for any sense of stability, that […]

VIDEO: How the Democratic Boom Led to Economic Bust

It isn’t exactly the one-year anniversary card Joe Biden was hoping for. Twelve months into this ill-advised marriage, Americans have three words for how this president makes them feel: “frustrated” (50 percent), “disappointed” (49 percent), and “nervous” (40 percent). Any love they had for this administration has been lost — and quickly. Just 25 percent […]

VIDEO: All Trails Lead to Cardona in Parents-as-Terrorist Flap

For Joe Biden, the uproar his administration caused by calling parents “domestic terrorists” has been a controversy he never could shake. Since October, when Attorney General Merrick Garland threatened to sic the FBI on moms and dads who spoke up at school board meetings, the administration has been on the losing side of a very […]

New Year’s, New Fears over Biden Booster Mania

While the rest of the country turns the page on 2021, Joe Biden seems absolutely determined to repeat last year’s mistakes. Barely three days in, the new year is not ushering in new confidence about the president’s leadership on COVID. On the contrary, Americans are more skeptical than ever that this administration has any idea […]

VIDEO: The Left Continues to Embrace Fear and Ignore Science

It’s been two months since the Biden administration announced plans to require 100 million American workers to get the COVID-19 shot, and three months since the administration handed down mandates for all federal employees and military personnel. Yet in all that time, the administration still has not bothered to address the elephant in the room: […]
